Get Inspired by Real Heroes: Winston Churchill , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 115min

Winston Churchill was born to wealth and nobility in the United Kingdom, blessed with advantages most could only dream of. But despite his high birth, he overcame personal obstacles on the way to being one of the most famous and successful self-made men in history. And the lessons he took to heart most profoundly were learned in the schoolroom of the British Army. In his role as a soldier, a leader of men in battle, even as a writer, he was impressive yet relatable. A patriotic civil servant of the British Empire, he dedicated his life towards the glory of his country, and towards the world's democracy. A seat in Parliament proved the spot best suited to his ambition. While his vision allowed him to see ahead to trending events most could not understand. Over the years he was never finished learning, as much from his defeats and humiliations as from his bravery and foresighted triumphs. He was the embodiment of "We shall never surrender", when his nation was marked for an inevitable defeat. Sir Winston Churchill was a real proof that one person can change the course of their life, even world history, through will and determination. In his own words..."Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Sangita Chauhan.

An Inconvenient Ward: Inconvenient Trilogy, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 423min

Although this book is part of a trilogy, each book is a stand-alone story in its own right. Lord Michael Dunham is bored of society, bored of fickle women, but above all that, he is afraid. His father suffered from madness, and Michael is terrified that he will inherit the same affliction. He scrutinizes his every mood swing, his every expression, to see if he can detect any signs that he is developing the symptoms. It blights his life. He has determined that he will never marry, putting a wife through the same that his mother suffered, and he certainly will never have children. The disease will die with him. Miss Elizabeth Rufford is a young lady who is more comfortable managing an estate as far away from society as she can possibly be. She would rather be planting crops than dancing a quadrille, rather be building walls than playing cards. She did not seek a London season when she came out of the schoolroom and would be happy never to visit the capital. A line in a will force the two together. Lord Dunham is Elizabeth's guardian, whether she likes it or not, and she really does not like it! Bounding into his life in the most outrageous way possible, Elizabeth makes an impact she never intended to. Michael is drawn to the feisty woman and suddenly finds that it is hard to fight one's demons when Elizabeth Rufford is a part of your life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Elizabeth Klett.

Eight Lessons on Infinity: A Mathematical Adventure , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 393min

A fun, nontechnical, and wonderfully engaging guide to that most powerful and mysterious of mathematical concepts: infinity. In this book, best-selling author and mathematician Haim Shapira presents an introduction to mathematical theories which deal with the most beautiful concept ever invented by humankind: infinity.In this book, best-selling author and mathematician Haim Shapira presents an introduction to mathematical theories which deal with the most beautiful concept ever invented by humankind: infinity. Authored in clear, simple language and aimed at a lay audience, this book offers some strategies that will allow listeners to try their ability at solving truly fascinating mathematical problems. Infinity is a deeply counterintuitive concept that has inspired many great thinkers. In this book, we will meet many sages, both familiar and unfamiliar: Zeno and Pythagoras, Georg Cantor and Bertrand Russell, Sofia Kovalevskaya and Emmy Noether, al-Khwarizmi and Euclid, Sophie Germain and Srinivasa Ramanujan.The world of infinity is inhabited by many paradoxes, and so is this book: Zeno paradoxes, Hilbert's "Infinity Hotel", Achilles and the gods paradox, the paradox of heaven and hell, the Ross-Littlewood paradox involving tennis balls, the Galileo paradox, and many more.Aimed at the curious but nontechnical listener, this book refrains from using any fearsome mathematical symbols. It uses only the most basic operations of mathematics: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, powers, and roots - that is all. But that doesn’t mean that a bit of deep thinking won’t be necessary and rewarding.Created with humor and lightness of touch, Haim Shapira banishes the chalky pallor of the schoolroom and offers, instead, a truly thrilling intellectual journey. Fasten your seatbelt. We are going to infinity, and beyond! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Quentin Cooper. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/194317/bk_acx0_194317_sample.mp3.
